Hello and welcome to the home of Word of the Week. A nice and simple weekly linky, with everyone welcome to pop by and share. The idea of the linky is to reflect back on your past week and share it with us. It’s great if you can sum it up in a word or phrase, hence giving us your Word of the Week. My word this week is ‘Muddled’ and you can read more about that below.
I’m not totally strict on using just a word or phrase. But please try to stick to the theme of summing up your week. There are not too many rules with this linky, just remember to read at least another couple of posts in the link up after adding your link. I will read and comment on all posts and tweet them out for you. I also have a Pinterest board devoted to Word of the Week and I will add posts to Mix Please add the badge below to your post so that others may find us and join in. If you comment or tweet then please use the hashtag #WotW
Word of the Week is open from 6am on Friday Morning to 12 noon on Monday. Plenty of time to join in!
If you are unfamiliar with the Word of the Week linky then please feel free to ask any questions. New linkers are always welcome, we love to hear what you have been up to in the past week.
MY WORD OF THE WEEK – Muddled
This week I’ve been so muddled I’m actually questioning that it’s Friday Today? Oh, and it’s the 1st of October (Where did September go?) so this is also my first Blogtober post. If you are coming here from #Blogtober then welcome to my weekly linky.
So, the weekend was a blur, both me and Boo were feeling quite poorly thanks to a bug she picked up from school. She didn’t go to school on Friday and they asked us to get her a PCR test for Covid seeing as she was symptomatic. Her Dad took her to the centre, she lost her phone, they went back twice! Eventually they found it in the car. Anyway, the test was negative, it was just a nasty cold. By Sunday she was feeling better and her big sister brought down her computer and VCR headset so Boo and the Little Man could play some virtual reality games.
On Monday Boo went back to school but she’d managed to share her germs with Star and the Little Man so I had to keep them home. Eldest son was feeling unwell so I called the GP who said she wanted to see him in the surgery. I wrote down the appointment but I must have got it muddled because when we turned up on Tuesday morning we were told the appointment was on Wednesday!
On Tuesday we had a meeting at the school with Boo’s pastoral care worker. We had a long list of issues, all of which Boo had managed to sort out herself so the visit was a bit pointless. Although we did sort out her school ID pass and her new timetable. Not what we went for so the whole meeting was a bit muddled.
Eldest son’s GP appointment went ok the next day and afterwards I got ready to go for my eye test. It was about half hour before we left the house when I got a phone call from the opticians who were just checking that I was still able to make my appointment…which was the following day! Eek, I had the days muddled up again.
On Wednesday evening Star went out with her Dad to an ‘open mike’ night which he attends regularly. She was happy to go because he invited her boyfriend too. The night went well but I got Star up for college the next morning only to be told she didn’t have to go in until lunch time. I got it muddled up again. I’m still getting used to all these different time tables. (I really thought it was Tuesday’s that she went in late!)
I’m reading back through this post and I’m still not sure I have things right or have I muddled it all up? Ah well, it’s a new month and a fresh start. I’ll try again to get it all right.
Anyway, now it’s over to you. What word or phrase sums up your week this week?
I’m glad it’s not just me! I’ve been a day ahead all week. Glad everything worked out in the end and hope everyone is feeling better.
I feel really confused with it being October already. Where is this year going?
I hope everyone is feeling better now.
You really have had a muddled week. x

Good luck with the challenge again this year.
Oh totally muddled is a good phrase for me too lol. Sorry to hear they were ill. I’ve got appointment days muddled in the past – I blame it on us Mums having too many things to remember! We do well with all we DO get right! 🙂 Open mic night sounds fun for Star. Yes, a new month and fresh start- Happy October xxx
It happens to all of us, Anne. It’s just a part of growing up, lol. Well, around here we didn’t get to do our word of the week but I still like coming round to see how other people sum up their week.
Well, our network provider sent to say that we would have intermittent service and it was more out than in, so not a lot got done that needed wifi.
Hopefully next week we all will be back to normal
oh dear, having your internet down is the pits. I hope you are up and running again soon.
So easy to get muddled sometimes with appointments and different times for going in to school/college. Glad you’re feeling better now and hope next week is more smooth sailing. I can’t believe it’s October already. #WotW
Something so small can throw off the whole week. We all have weeks like this. The worst ones are when you think it’s Friday and it’s only Thursday #WotW
